For example:

minion = {
   hp = 1000,
   x = 10,
   y = 25
}

Is there any function that I can know how many variables exist within this table?

There is already a answer for size . To scroll through the elements:

minion = {
    hp = 1000,
    x = 10,
    y = 25 }

for i, v in pairs(minion) do
    print(i, "=>", v)
end
